Angel vs Sinner

Angel vs Sinner: Slot Overview

Lurking within human beings lies the capacity to do both good and bad deeds. For the most part, it might be argued that the majority of people manage to quash the voice in their ear telling them to do nasty, or at least illegal things. Although, we are encouraged to be civil by laws, rules, and punishments. If the urge to flex your naughty side appeals, then maybe you can live out some of those fantasies in Pragmatic Play's online slot Angel vs Sinner. Well, probably not, but it's a slot that sees the good and bad duke it out using a set of reels for the arena, dispensing full reel wild multipliers in the process.

It's pretty easy to work out who is the angel and who is the sinner in this game. A subtle study of labyrinthine psychology Angel vs Sinner is not. On the left floats a Starlight Princess-type character, all sugar, spice and so on, while a winged sinner hovers over to the right. It's hard to tell if they're two parts of a single person's psyche, if they're fighting out cos that's what goodies and baddies do, or if they're even buddies like the angel and demon duo in Good Omens. Players are able to fill in any storyline gaps as they see fit.

Encased in gold trim, Angel vs Sinner's gaming panel is made of 5 reels, holding 5 rows on each reel and inlaid with 15 paylines. Bets of 10 c to $/€250 per spin may be wagered in what is a highly volatile online slot. It actually seemed very volatile indeed. The RTP comes in various forms, so if you want the highest, that would be the 96.56% version.

All symbols pay from the leftmost reel, and Angel vs Sinner drops 10 different pay symbols onto its reels. They are, from the top down, the Angel, the Sinner, a unicorn, a crow, a flower, then A to 10 card ranks. Royal symbols pay 1 to 1.5 times the bet for 5 OAK; the rest are worth up to 2x to 8x. When wilds are up on the screen, they substitute for all symbols except the scatter. A line of 5 wilds pays 8x the bet.

Angel vs Sinner: Slot Features

Angel vs Sinner doesn't have a whole lot of extras, but what it has can be good if you get it. In both the base game and free spins, the main feature is the Expanding Wild symbol. In free spins, the Expanding Wild symbol is sticky.

Expanding Wild Symbol

The Expanding Wild symbol appears on all reels. When it hits in the base game or in free spins, if a win would form after expansion, it expands to cover the whole reel. It also gets a random multiplier x2 to x100, applying to all winning combinations it is part of. Multiplier values are added to each together if more than one Expanding Wild is part of a win.

Free Spins

Appearing on the leftmost, middle, and rightmost reel is Angel vs Sinner's scatter symbol. Landing 3 scatters awards 10 free spins. In free spins, any Expanding Wild which hits remains sticky with its multiplier until the round ends. Possible multipliers are the same as in the base game. Free spins cannot be retriggered.

Free Spins Buy

For 75 times the bet, players are able to buy their way into the free spins round.

Angel vs Sinner: Slot Verdict

If you've reached this far into the review, well, you've probably already figured out Angel vs Sinner is pretty much a reskin of Pragmatic's 2023 hit release Zeus vs Hades: Gods of War. Just like the original, the volatility here is brutal, as in, it can provide slaps to the chops like Dawid Zalewski. Full reel wild multipliers sound great in theory, but when only one hits with a low value and just 15 paylines on the 5x5 grid, for example, they were less effective than first hoped for. The way the angel and sinner fight on the wild, the winner awarding their value felt boosted from a Hacksaw Gaming slot, too, Gladiator Legends, for example. Put another way, it took time to relax and discover Angel vs Sinner's finer points.

The pinnacle of the session was getting wilds on reels 2 and 3 in the free spins round, leading to winning spins from there on out. Then you're kinda laughing. With monster multipliers in place and a handful of full reel wilds locked to the grid, Angel vs Sinner's 15,000x the bet top prize feels like it just might be possible, theoretically at least.

As mentioned, Angel vs Sinner is just as volatile as its predecessor, quite noticeably all or nothing, so tread carefully, especially with the bonus buys. In summary; whilst there's nothing new here to experience in the grand scheme of things, full reel multiplier wilds featuring chesty good and bad characters will still attract a fair share of players.
